TRAI in October 2026 notification to Airtel, Reliance Jio and Vodafone-Idea: Clearly display these prepaid packs and special tariff vouchers; gives deadline

India’s Telecom regulator TRAI does not seem to be happy with the way the country’s mobile service providers — Reliance Jio, Airtel and Vodafone-Idea — show prepaid packs and special tariff vouchers. In a notification issued recently, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has asked mobile service providers to prominently display mandatory recharge plans and special tariff vouchers on their websites, mobile apps and exclusive points of sale. These regulations are called the Telecom Consumers Protection (Thirteenth Amendment) Regulations, 2026.

TRAI maintains that it has come with new guidelines after receiving complaints from consumers.
